What is a Waterpik water flosser?<\/h2>

Let’s begin by answering an important question: What’s a Waterpik water flosser?<\/strong><\/p>

A water flosser (or oral irrigator) is an oral health appliance used for dental care at home. Water flossers consist of a motor with a pump, a water reservoir and a water flosser tip. The motor pumps pressurised water from the reservoir, through the tip and into your mouth. This stream of water removes plaque and food particles just like regular floss. <\/p>

In an ideal world, you would use a Waterpik in addition to regular string flossing. But let’s be honest, string floss is fiddly and most of us don’t bother doing it daily, which is what dentists recommend. If you fall into that category then you might find that a more convenient water flosser does wonders for your oral hygiene routine<\/a>. <\/p>

Some studies suggest that a water flosser is better than string floss, especially if you have braces or implants<\/a>. This said you should follow whatever your dentist recommends based on the condition of your teeth and gums.<\/p>

Ask a hygienist! <\/div>
<\/p>

During a consultation with a hygienist or your dentist, the most common advice given is to brush twice a day and floss your teeth. This advice has been proven statistically and is why dental professionals reinforce it at every appointment. <\/p>

Beautiful smiles begin with healthy gums and teeth. So, it is important to ensure that the teeth and gums are maintained in a healthy state by brushing regularly and flossing daily. This helps to remove the plaque\/tartar that forms on teeth and keeps the microorganisms at bay. <\/p>

There are many interdental aids available in the market to help with your flossing and the newest being the oral irrigation devices. Some interdental aids may not be suitable for people with highly sensitive teeth or advanced gum disease with mobile teeth. <\/p>

So, it is always best to have a discussion with your dentist or hygienist on what is best for your teeth and gums.<\/p>
